After yet another disappointing playoff exit and seeing their World Series championship drought increase to 31 years, the Los Angeles Dodgers entered the offseason with an open mind to potentially shaking up the roster.
For several weeks there were more subtractions than additions, plus notable misses in free agency. The club signed Blake Treinen to bolster the bullpen, but lost a pair of left-handed starting pitchers in Hyun-Jin Ryu and Rich Hill on the open market.
The Dodgers also failed to reel in one of the top free agents, watching the likes of Gerrit Cole, Anthony Rendon and Stephen Strasburg sign elsewhere.
